Conclusions
-
1.
During stimulation of the somatosensory and motor cortex (areas Prc2 and Prc1) and of the ventrolateral zone of the head of the caudate nucleus, extinction of the food reflex is accelerated and deepened.
-
2.
Stimulation of the anterolateral gyrus (area Pc1) of the cortex and the central zone of the head of the caudate nucleus delays extinction of the conditioned reflex.
-
3.
Stimulation of the dorsal zone of the head of the caudate nucleus evokes motor excitation of the animal, which delays extinction of the reflex.
-
4.
Adaptive behavior, requiring urgent reorganization of a positive food response into a negative response, requires the participation of structures of the strio-cortical system.
